Abstract

An approach of distance-field-based layered manufacturing (LM) of FGM objects is presented in this paper. Firstly, a 3D model is sliced and scanned to a series of 2D point clouds. Then, through uniformly subdividing each 2D point cloud we can compute the signed distance field of each grid points. According to the gradient property of FGM, coupled with the material distance field, a series of iso-material sub-regions for tool path planning are obtained. In this way we can systematically represent and fabricate FGM objects by a unified distance field model.
